When prospecting new sales, adding potential clients as Leads in CRM can help sales teammates manage and track accurate pipelines. Creating Leads is the first official stage of the sales life cycle. A “discovery” call occurs during this stage to determine if the lead is “qualified” or not. Once a Lead has been qualified in Nextiva CRM, Users can track it through the remaining stages of the sales life cycle under Opportunities.
